# SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

                    We published a                     **Federal Register**                     Notice with a 60-day public comment period on this information collection on September 27, 2024, at 89 FR 79333. There were no comments received.                

*Title:*                     Relocation Assistance Personal Interviews for FHWA Federal and Federally Assisted Programs under the Uniform Relocation Assistance and Real Property Acquisition Polies Act of 1970, as amended (Uniform Act).                

*Background:*                     This program implements 42 U.S.C. 4602, concerning acquisition of real property and relocation assistance for persons displaced by FHWA Federal and federally assisted programs. It requires the provision of relocation assistance and payments to U.S. citizens and persons legally present in the United States. The information collected consists of a personal interview of affected persons to establish eligibility for relocation assistance and payments. Displacing agencies will request each person who is to be displaced by a FHWA Federal or federally assisted project to voluntarily assist the agency in determining the benefits that their household, business, farm, or non-profit organization may be eligible to receive through the personal interview to determine their needs and preferences related to the move. This information is not required from the displaced person for the agency to proceed.                

*Respondents:*                     Any of the 56 State Departments of Transportations (52, including the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico), and the United States territories of American Samoa, Guam, N. Mariana Is., and the Virgin Islands of the United States (4 territories), local government agencies, persons administering projects or programs receiving financial assistance for expenditures of Federal funds on acquisition and relocation payments and required services to displaced persons that are subject to the Relocation Assistance and Real Property Acquisition Policies Act of 1970, as amended, (Uniform Act) for determination of Uniform Act relocation program benefit amounts, and file maintenance.                

*Frequency:*                     The information will be collected once per displacement of a household, business, farm, or non-profit organization.                

*Estimated Average Burden per Response:*                     1 hour per respondent per personal interview.                

*Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours:*                     It is expected that there is an estimated total of 4,600 annual burden hours.                

*Public Comments Invited:*                     You are asked to comment on any aspect of this information collection, including: (1) Whether the proposed collection is necessary for the FHWA's performance; (2) the accuracy of the estimated burdens; (3) ways for the FHWA to enhance the quality, usefulness, and clarity of the collected information; and (4) ways that the burden could be minimized, including the use of electronic technology, without reducing the quality of the collected information. The agency will summarize and/or include your comments in the request for OMB's clearance of this information collection.                

*Authority:*                     The Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995; 44 U.S.C. chapter 35, as amended; and 49 CFR 1.48.
